Why can't Tottenham compete with Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal? Roberto De Zerbi wants to know — and he's asking it out loud.
The second half of De Zerbi's press conference ahead of Spurs vs Charlton — the embargoed section — where he lays out exactly why he thinks Tottenham should be competing at the very top, and why the club should keep spending to get there. Chelsea's 2-3 seasons to become champions is his benchmark. The mentality change is his method. Winning five games in a row is the trigger he's chasing.
Plus: why Tonali, Van Hecke and Senesi weren't physically ready at Brentford (Australia tour context). Why emotional reaction is exactly what Spurs need to avoid after the opening defeat. Whether Savinho — two goals in 52 Premier League games at City — can actually become a starter. And a defiant defence of his ability to develop him.
